Hello LogPoint Support / LogPoint Community,

regarding the news about the log4j 2 CVE-2021-44228, I’ve been wondering whether log4j Version 2 is in use in the LogPoint Core SIEM or other parts of your product suite.

Could you please evaluate this and inform us partners and customers about the probable impact of this CVE?

Thanks so much in advance,

Tobias Weidemann

Hi Tobias,

 

We are currently working on an official response to Log4js  - we expect it out later today.

Once done, we will inform all Customers and Partners via a newsletter and also publish the information here on the Community,

The response from Logpoint regarding this is way to slow.

What I have found, is that Logpoint uses version 1.2.16 of log4j, located at /opt/immune/installed/java/dependencies:

* Note: log4j v1.2.x is vulnerable to another vulnerability, that is only exploitable when using the class JMSAppender. While LogPoint uses log4j in version 1.2, JMSAppender is not used in LogPoint and we have actively attempted to exploit the vulnerability, confirming that in these cases log4j v1.2 is not vulnerable in the current deployment configuration.
